Denial

Denial

This story catches the masculine impotency that is one of the most nuanced themes Denial explores as a project. ‘In Sterquiliniis Invenitur’, attempt to find beauty in filth and weakness. Inspired by pre-raphaelite paintings, is depicted a classically picturesque world in which time has become confused and the glimpses of the beautifully sordid present are allowed to shine through.
